Thank you to everyone that attended our midweek litter pickup at McKelligon Canyon. We concentrated our efforts at the entrance gate area where 15 volunteers plus one doggie collected 30 bags of litter and 2 tires in one hour.

The amount of empty beer bottles and glass that we collected was TNTC (too numerous to count). The amount of calories from our after pickup donut consumption was also TNTC.

Thanks again to our volunteers. Out next pickup is Monday February 16th at Cedar Grove Pond Park in the Lower Valley.
